Summary:

What happens when Ebony cheats on Ruby?

Work Text:

Ruby sighed, as she hung up the phone for the 4th time in 10 minutes. Ebony had been calling her
house non-stop since their fight yesterday, and it was driving Ruby mad. Things between herself
and her girlfriend were crazy lately. They had been talking about trying to find a place to go for
their 4 month anniversary, and Ebony had thrown a hissy fit, at every single place that she had
suggested. But wait, that wasn't even what had started this round of arguments

Oh no, it was something much worse than that. They had been dating for a month, and one day
Ruby had gotten a call from Ebony. Her girlfriend claimed to be sick, and had said that it would
be best to cancel their plans, since she was sick, and what she had was contagious. The lovers
had talked for a little while longer, and then Ruby agreed to stay away. And she had stayed away,
that day. The next morning, Ruby got up and out of bed, bright and early.

She made some soup for Ebony, and as she finished, her brother came downstairs. Looking up, Ruby
saw her brother take a seat at the table. Blake ran a hand through his long blonde hair. He watched
Ruby put the soup into a thermos, and then closed it tightly. Walking over to the table, she took a
seat next to her brother. "Who is that soup for, your little girlfriend?" Blake asks, laughing loudly. To
everyone else, she and Ebony were best friends. They were more than that.

However, nobody knew that they were going out. Wanting to wipe the smirk off of Blake's face, she said,
"it is." Blake's mouth dropped open in shock, and then he quickly and quietly, got up and left the kitchen.
Ruby picked up the thermos and left to go to Ebony's house. A little while later, she pulled up in front of
her girlfriend's house. Ruby saw Ebony's car, but there was also one that she didn't recognize. She got
out her car, and then walked up to the front door.

Moments later, she knocked on the door, and then waited for 5 minutes, but there was no answer. So she
just turned the handle of the door, and walked into Ebony's house. The sight that met Ruby's eyes hurt her
deeply. Ebony was cheating on her. The woman that Ebony was with, was May, an ex-girlfriend of Ebony's.
Ruby was so hurt, that she was at a loss of words, for the first time in her life. Turning, she dropped the
thermos, and bolted right back out the front door.

Getting back into her car, Ruby slammed on the gas, peeling out of the driveway. Ebony, who had been
stunned when Ruby had shown up, came out of her stupor, and ran to the door. She was too late. Ruby
had already gotten into her car, and left. As she got home a little while later, Ruby realized she should
have seen this coming a mile away. They hadn't made love in over 5 weeks, and Ebony wasn't a very
patient person. She hated passionately, to wait, on anything and everything.

Ruby walked into her house, an hour later. She had driven around town, trying to get the image of Ebony
and May, naked together, out of her mind. It didn't work. Sighing, she started upstairs, only to run into
Blake again, this time literally. "Get out my way," Ruby snapped angrily. Blake gave her a concerned look,
which she promptly ignored. She walked into her bedroom, angrily slamming the door. Fling onto her bed,
Ruby remembered a scene that would never leave her, since it kept being repeated, over and over again.

She and Ebony had been shopping in the mall, and Ebony would take her hand, but a few moments later,
when people would stop and stare at them, Ebony would drop her hand, afraid everyone would know she
was a lesbian. Ruby'd been disappointed, but understood. Now, looking back on things, Ruby realized Ebony
hadn't been trying to hide her sexuality. She had been trying to hide the fact that they were going out.

May had been in one of the stores, and had seen the two of them together. Of course, at the time, Ruby
hadn't known that May and Ebony were sleeping together. Sighing, she wondered if it was possible to live
if your heart had been ripped out your chest, and thrown to the ground, just to get stomped on, over and
over, again, repeatedly. Ruby was surprised, when an hour later; there was a loud knock on her bedroom
door.

Then, something that Ruby wasn't ready for, happened. Ebony walked into her room, She quickly wiped
her eyes, and got off her bed, getting to her feet to stand and face Ebony. "I'm appalled that you have
the nerve to come here, and face me, after what has happened." Ruby said her voice low and dangerous,
which wasn't like her at all. Rolling her eyes, she asked, "What do you want, Ebony?" Ruby wasn't in the
mood.

Ebony sighed softly. "Look, I'm sorry that you had to find out this way. I'm sorry." Ruby stared at her girlfriend,
or rather ex-girlfriend, now. "I trusted you, Ebony. I believed in you. I gave you my heart, body, and soul. And
this is what I get in return? I get cheated on? I just wonder what thus has been. Were you just using me, as a
way to get back at May, or something?" Ebony shook her head no. "No, I wasn't. I... It just happened, and I'm
sorry Ruby. You know that I love you." "No, you don't love me, and that's fine. I'm through with you."

The End.
